WILLIAM BARNAIID o Kee", FOR Pt ESk.RVING THE TEETH AND GUMS. BUTLER'S VEGETABLE TOOTH POWDER has so lung been in general use, that it is 4,lmost unnecessary to offer any further recommendation of it. Composed of Vegetables, without the admixture of any Mineral or pernicious ingredient whatever, it is free from the usual ob jection against the use of other Dentrifices. Its detersive power is just sufficient to annihilate those destructive parti- Ovs which adhere to the Gums and the Interstices of the Teeth ; healing injuries in the former, and promoting a new Enamel (where it has been injured or corroded) on the latter. It likewise imparts a firmness and healthy redness to the ( hints; and, if , used regularly, will preserve the Teeth in a sound state to old age.

IVIARINE SOCIETY. The Anniversary Dinner of this excellent in stitution, the object of which is to clothe and prepare distressed boys for the sea service, was held yesterday at the City of Lon don Tavern. His /loyal Highness the Duke of CLARENCE filled the chair, and was supported by Lord Lowther, Lord Bolton, Sir P. Malcolm (one of the Lords of the Admiralty), Vice-Admiral Sir George Cockburn, Sir F. Omtnatiey, M.P., Sir W. Blizard, John Woolmore and George Gooch, E s qrs., Eld e r Brethren of the Trinity-house, . and a number of distinguished naval characters. The customary toasts having been given front the chair, his Hord Highness, in proposing, sucass to the Tnstitution, took occasion to observe, that charity and policy were united in the objects of this excellent society. It was calculated alike for a state of peace and a Awe of wae,,andt was eminently advan tageous in providing for die latter. Hies Royal Highness said that no very dark clouds rested an the political horizon at the present moment ? but it was impossible to fotesee how long this state of' tranquillity would continue. His obtiertations in fo reign countries led him to observe, that die inhabitants of those countries, though the condition of theft resources made it their interest to preserve peace, were yet deeming it necessary to prepare in the event of a war ; and it certainly was the interest of this country to place itself in a situation in which it would riot be despised, it a war should at any tithe break out; and whatever our pecuniary or military resources may be, he thought, that, in the 'event of a war, the chief dependence of Great Britain, which he trusted would ever remain Great Bri tain, would be on her naval strength. His Royal Highness was loudly cheered at the conclusion of his address. At this period of the evening, the boys belonging to the In stitution, to the number of U 5, clad In the uniform of' the So ciety, were - marched round the room, and, upon departing, gave three loud and hearty cheers, expressive of gratitude to their generous benefactors. A collection was then made, which amounted at the close of the evening to 45111. The health of Lord Romney (the President), the healthy of the Vice-Presidents, the Treasurer, and other Officers of the Society, were given in the course of the evening, and the com pany separated at a late hour.

Talbot, NU>. ; Capt. Beaufort, 1t.'1., &c. Sir HENRI' Mao: wool), Bart. took the Chair. Ile then called on the Secretary to read the Auditors' Report, which stated that, by order of the Directors, a stun of 12,381/. 17s. was paid for . 1,102 Shares, which account ' t h e Auditors did not take into their statement, as they conceived the Directors were account able to the Shareholders, and they were happy to bear tea. dimly to the honourable conduct of' certain Directors coining forward and paying 730/. Ids. being their portion of the 12,3811. 17s. ; that there were 2,600 Shares allotted, and the deposit was paid on them, and a sum of 26,800!. was got from the public; 19,3871. was paid for the Calpe steam vessel, and 7,342/. remented to be accounted for by the Directors. It also stated, that there were 462 Shares still in the hands of the Bankers of the Company, on which the deposits had not been paid. After the Report had!been read, an inquiry was made by a Shareholder, whether the 402 Shares in the Bankers' hands formed a part of the balance of 7 ,3.121. to be accounted for by the. Directors, upon which a most sowy discussion took place, and it was finally agreed ha, that the Shareholdera had wh atsoevertoaks:etrith 'the Welts - au the limakeret that the Directors were accountable, to them_ for the balance of 7,3424 and It ciumuned • with dicer to enfbree the pay. ment of the deposits on the Shates In the Bankers' bandit.' The -Car A lamest then submitted, that the A uditors!Aeport .1 b e r e ceived, which, after much opposition on the part of a eel.. tain portion of the Shareholders, and not until it was distinctly understood that the Directors were accountable fin' the 7,3421. and that the shares in the banker's • hands were the exclusive property of the Directors, was agreed to. '1 he next question that came betbre the Meeting was; whether the Oenerid Report of the Directors read at the last Meeting bus to be received. Capt. FoutEircom and Mr. GREGORY severally addressed the Sleeting at great length, in reply to the statement of the Knight of Kerry, at the last Meeting ; when, On the question being put by a show of hands, there appeared Lt great majority in fatatur of the Report being received ; when several Share holders demanded a ballot, which then being granted by th e Chairman, scruti neers were appointed, and it was found de cidedly in favour of the Report. A Sit aftellor.DEn then moved a Resolution, that the Report which had just been received, should nut be printed, as it re= fleeted on the character of certain Shareholdbrs ; which passed unanimously. Thanks were then voted to the Directors, for their zealous endeavours to promote the interests of the Company. After which the Meeting broke up. . . Till KENTISH RAILWAY COMPANY. Yesterday a Meeting ut" the Kentish Railway Company was held at the Albion Tavern, Altientgate-street, Sir J. Cocxn wilt, in the Chair. The:Chairman stated, that r tt if u lil a tha po m it a tt uti of O co ree u tit y he no , w t h it to h in t ro er e d u o c r t e n m y a part of th e p roposed Railway went through the parishes • wn me l L n u d r . e fri the House of C ommons which respected the Clown lands without first giving notice to the Crown, and aster. taming whether they h a d any objection to it. This had been done in the present instance, when a strong opposition arose on the part of those gentlemen resisting at Elthani, who had villas, and who were afraid that the introduction of a Rail Rued would destroy what was their chief' recommendation, namely, tetirement. There no probability of the Society, by any compensation, overtroming this opposition. They had, however, found, that, by taking a circle of a mile, they could proCeed with the Road ; but there was not time to give the regular notice to enable them to take any proceedings this Session for forwarding the measure in Parliament. Under all circumstances, therefore, the Directors bad come to the resolu. tion of recommending to the proprietors to abandon all pro. ceedings in Parliament, for the present, and to allow every shareholder who chose to withdraw, and to return him his de. posit, with a share of the expenses incurred. What the ex pences might be the Directord could nut at present state, as they bad not settled their Solicitor's bill, which was heavy.—The motion was carried by a large majority. • --seopie.— GREAT t VEST:MINSTER h AIRY RY COMP.

SHELTON, Esq. tile Coroner for London, and a respectable Jury, assembled in the Committee-room of St. Bartholomew's Hospital, to inquire into the death of Mrs. Alary Alcock, aged 87, who carne by het death, under the following extraordinary circumstances Mr. William Alcock, the husband Of the deceased, stat e d, that he was a watch-hand maker, and resided in Moneyer- Street, Roston New-town. • On last Sund a y ten wee k s, h e went out about three o'clock in the afternoon, leaving his wife in good health and spirits at home. He returned home about ten at night, and on going into the foam, he found the deceased sitting on a chair by the tire, upon which was a saucepan, and her head resting on the bar of the stove. He instantly ran to her assistance, and raised her lit the chair, and on examining the side of her head, he found the cap and hair a little singed, but could perceive no Wound in the head. He niade the bed, and she went to bed quite sensible, and witness took nti ther notice till the next morning, when she eciniplained of pains in the part that was injured, and then he c a ll e d i n a d octor , w h o prescribed proper applications, and she remained ,at home for three weeks, doing very well ; when on one day, finding she did not come house, he became unease', And on inquiring for her, he found she had got ketself admitted into the Hospital, a n d, said the witness, " I am Very sorry she o'er did, it was against my inclination, for I am sure it has been the Cause of her death." Coroner.—How—been the cause of your wife's death ? Ex plain yourseM You neglected her by not sending for surgical advice sooner than feu did. Witness.--I did not consider the injury she had sustained was of any consequence, which was the reason I did not call in a (lector the same night the accident happened. Coroner.Aut why do you say, that by your wife being ad mined into this Hospital it caused her death ? IVitness—Because the young boys that Walk the Hospital tic: tually cut her scull open, and examined the Cements of the head whilst she was living, and she only lived one day after. I went to see her on Friday, and I was retused admission for two horirs, and when I went into the ward where my poor wife was lyi ng , (here he butst into a flood of tears), I found her in se n s ible from agony ; she attempted to speak to me, tuft bet tongue had ceased to act ; she squeezed tuy hand, and her countenance indicated that she had something she wished to Communi tate. tier head had been cut in half, and the aawinga of her scull were to be seen on the bed clothes ; and to appearance it seemed as if some carpenter had been sawing a plank.__. The operators was standing about her with their blue aprons and sleeves, and witness was so shocked at the sight that he could scarcely remain in the room. In addition td mangling her whilst living, they have mutilated the bode Since death ; and when I get the corpse away, I will certainly cause an in vestigation into the affair. I say again, lam sure they have caused her death. Coroner.—l hive no doubt but the surgeons trapanned the skull, in hopes that it would prove beneficial to the patient. %Vitness.—lt could not prove very beneficial to sever the head in half whilst the patient lived. The object was to explore the contents of the skull before life was extinct. lam sure that It caused her death---1 am sure of it. lam certain her days were shortened by her coming here. Coronet—lt was the surgeons' duty to trepan the skull, and no doubt they were of opinion it would' be the means of saving her life. DO you know how your wife came to be in the situ*. don you found her in Witneas—She told me idle fell forward In a tit. She had an apoplectic fit some time before that. • Mr. Lawrence Joseph, one of the house surgeons of the hos. Tina, was next examined. Il e s t ate d t h at t h e d ecease d was brought into the house on the 30th January last; he examined 'her, and.found she had experienced some severe injuries on the right side of the bead ; all the soft part was destroyed, and the bone also to a considerable extent, perhaps two-thirds of the right side. She was quite sensible ; she went on fairly well for some time, but witness never entertained hopes of her re r b v i tal. te. powersevrey.

It is a Very extraordinary thing that yoU did not inquire of the patient the cause of the accident. It is pert of your duty, Sir, Xi one di' the house surgeons of this institution, to make such inquiries, so that you may be able to facilitate inquiry should the unfortunate being die under the roof of the Hospital. Surgeon.--I have no doubt the inquiry wag Made ; but I cannot call to mind whether it was or nut. Coroner.—Then you have a bad memory, Sit Surgeon.—That Is Merely your opinion, Sit. Coroner.—Ay, and I think it is the Opinion of the Gentle men of the Jury as well as myself, although you are so very flippant. • ;surgeon. --I say lam not flippant, and you have no right to make such an assertion. Juror.—lt is most singular, Itlr. Joteph, that you did not inquire how the accident iteppened.
